Synopsis
In a galaxy far away, the war between humans and alien invaders has been raging for 50 years… The inhabitants of the kingdom of Industria are overwhelmed by enemies too powerful for them. Astro is one of those war orphans who live from day to day: with his meagre salary, he supports a whole group of children without parents. They formed a new family, united in the face of poverty.
His dreams of wealth come true when Barrage, prince of the kingdom, appears before him. The two boys look like two drops of water! The young nobleman takes advantage of this extraordinary coincidence to escape his role as prince and force Astro to take his place… Will the former commoner be able to adopt his new identity while protecting his family in a kingdom at war?
